The claim to fame is the [email protected] capability. I wish you had tested that claim. I did and was not impressed. The Vudu app does not recognize the units 4K capability. At 4K it starts stumbling in performance. Not recommended.

I have the AFTV2 and ATV4 and happy with it. ButbI wish the new Roku’s allowed locally customized DNS like my other two boxes. I would have bought one of those instead.

Exactly. That pissed me off so much. It’s heavily advertised as a 4K HDR streamer yet there is no developer support. Worst $70 spent. I got it on launch day. I’m hanging on to it with the hope that at least Netflix and Vudu begins HDR support on it.

There are a number of USB-to-ethernet adapters that are known to work with Android devices and should work fine with this one. Early buyers of the Mi Box have already confirmed that they have successfully used such adapters with it.
